Recensioner i media

Postmodern Sublime achieves the same goal it sets out for the writers it studies: to move readers.... An intellectual page-turner, this book represents an important and profound insight into the latest incarnation of the 'sacred national order,' the technological sublime, and how one might live with it.(Review of Contemporary Fiction)
